Dutch policewomen have complained after they were issued with see through blouses as part of their new unform.

Dozens of angry female officers have lodged complaints with the Dutch police trade union, reports the Algemeen Dagblad.

General secretary Hans Van Duyn said: "Even when they are wearing a white bra, you can see the bra and the skin through the blouse.

"Our policewomen feel they are being leered at and that is a very unpretty feeling."

He predicts many more complaints because most policewomen have still to be issued with the new uniforms.

"The only way to solve that would be to provide matching singlets to wear underneath. But if I were a woman, I wouldn't wait for my boss to take that decision," he said.
